Associate profesor in Physical Oceanography at the University of Iceland. Trying to understand through observations how mixing shapes the different properties of the water masses in the ocean through mesoscale processes.

Today M7.4 near Mexico resulting in a not a very big tsunami. However, once more shows that trapped waves could live in continental shelves for long time! @diegosismologo.bsky.social

Paper Alert! Very nice opportunity to work with them and highlight that not there are changes in the AMOC components and we should think on more long term observations.

I bet there are lots of unanswered questions around here in Iceland and Njörðr (Norse god of the wind) has decided to answer all of them at the same time! Yellow and Orange warnings all over the country!

Always nice to work with @diegosismologo.bsky.social Well done my friend! los chilangos de la UNAM!

Yep, no Internal Waves (IW) would be represented with Boussinessq, aka, no stratification. Perhaps it i a balance between the dispression and the initial condition...

I think internal waves should be investigated, I have no idea how is the stratification at the time but it would be worth looking at the internal wave dispersion relation and see if this matches the scales :)

We are entering a new era for tsunami observations and model validation-- The SWOT era! Thanks a lot @baptistegomb.bsky.social for reaching out, this was a fun collaboration. Also great working with @diegosismologo.bsky.social and @valah.bsky.social. @haskoliislands.bsky.social

sorry I did not answer this, but the answer is yes, it is amaizing how they can reproduce eddies, Randall Leveque, the creator of GeoClaw has great simulations with that

The greatest hotspot for resonance on the WestCoast!

Thanks Alice, It is a one-slab source based on the USGS parameters. Following typical examples from GeoClaw, one could find the geometry (400x100km). Still waiting for more information to update the solution.

I think it is quite long, 400km x 100km, it is just the fast one-slab solution, we do not have a solution from USGS yet, standing by but will update soon :)

Tsunami resulting from a M 8.7 Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, Russia. Preliminar solution from USGS and GeoClaw model. @haskoliislands.bsky.social

Full video of the tsunami in Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, Kamchatka, Russia, following the 8.7 earthquake. Wave seems incoming and a few meters at least.

The Ocean around us (In Iceland) is boiling! This month (May 2025) has exceed the number of high intensity Marine Heat Waves, I guess the nice weather comes with some price, hopefully this is not boiling the fish in the nearby sea... @haskoliislands.bsky.social

Let's make my first post be a provocative one :) --my research life in a single picture.
